“seem” is a regular verb in English.
"seem" is a linking verb (also called a copular verb). Linking verbs are followed by adjectives (not adverbs). Linking verbs can also be followed by noun phrases. A linking verb gives us more information about the subject.
In this lesson, you will learn the meaning and uses of "seem":
"seem" as a linking verb (seem + adjective and seem to be + adjective)
"it seems" + that clause
"it would seem" + that clause
"seem" + infinitive (simple infinitive, continuous infinitive and perfect infinitive)

I always mixed up seems & seems to be, someone told me ‘seems a manager’ is incorrect, it should be ‘seems to be a manager’, the latter is more suitable to describe a situation. I can’t catch up his meaning for situation, but now, your explanation is much more clear, the reason is ‘seems to be’ should be followed by a noun phase. Thanks Andrew

@joaoandre7488 4 года назад

Hi ,Teacher thank you for amazing lesson you have done for us. I have been watching your lesson, since I came in London. The first time I have watched this lesson I did not notice a little detail in this video. But today , I started to watch again the same lesson, and I noticed that something caught my attention. When the Teacher said: The verb Seem does not have a continuous form, similar to see, sound, smell, taste, and hear. I noticed that an less these verbs some of them usually it comes with continuous form in the newspapers, emails I have been receiving, letters etc. For instance, can I say: Smelling? Or seeing, tasting, hearing ? Because I have already seen these words in letters. Is it grammatically wrong? Can say that , or write them ? That’s my questions. Thank you for your attention. I have to say that, today I can speak and write in English with great confidence, because of you. My first language is Portuguese but I enjoy watching your lesson, I have been learning a lot from you. Thank you very much.

@wahidullahamin7575 5 лет назад

@articulodeterminado 5 лет назад

Hi, there! I found the lesson on the verb "seem" very thorough; I think it would be great if you can make another one with another verbs that are very similar : "look" & "look like"; in fact, in one of the examples you use one of these ( in the example of the cat being hungry: "... we can also say that "the cat looks like he's hungry." Thanks a lot in advance. Best wishes.
